Preparing to replace linux-image-2.6.28-1-mckinley 2.6.28-1~experimental.1 (using linux-image-2.6.28-1-mckinley_2.6.28-1~experimental.1_ia64.deb) ... The directory /lib/modules/2.6.28-1-mckinley still exists. Continuing as directed. Done. Unpacking replacement linux-image-2.6.28-1-mckinley ... Setting up linux-image-2.6.28-1-mckinley (2.6.28-1~experimental.1) ... Hmm. The package shipped with a symbolic link /lib/modules/2.6.28-1-mckinley/source However, I can not read the target: No such file or directory Therefore, I am deleting /lib/modules/2.6.28-1-mckinley/source Running depmod. Finding valid ramdisk creators. Using mkinitramfs-kpkg to build the ramdisk. Other valid candidates: mkinitramfs-kpkg mkinitrd.yaird W: mdadm: unchecked configuration file: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf W: mdadm: please read /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.upgrading-2.5.3.gz . W: mdadm: no arrays defined in configuration file. Not updating initrd symbolic links since we are being updated/reinstalled (2.6.28-1~experimental.1 was configured last, according to dpkg) Not updating image symbolic links since we are being updated/reinstalled (2.6.28-1~experimental.1 was configured last, according to dpkg) You already have a ELILO configuration in /etc/elilo.conf Do we really want to run bootloader elilo? Configuring linux-image-2.6.28-1-mckinley ----------------------------------------- The default boot loader for this architecture is elilo, which is present. However, you have not explicitly requested the boot loader elilo should be run in the configuration file /etc/kernel-img.conf, and you seem to have grub installed, and have set a postinst hook (which is used to hook in grub after a kernel image installation). At this point, it is perfectly likely that this system is using grub as a bootloader, and not the builtin default of elilo. If that is the case, running elilo instead of grub might make the machine unbootable. I need to know whether to run the default bootloader elilo, or just let the postinst hook script update grub later. The default is to run elilo. Run the default bootloader? Yes Ok, continuing as directed. Running /usr/sbin/elilo ...
